IFConnect is currently in beta and is only available on macOS for now. We welcome your feedback and suggestions to help improve the app. Plus, exciting news—a Windows version is on the way!


🎉 Good News: IFConnect Version

IFConnect is now compatible with Intel-based Macs starting from version v1.0.0-intel-macOS. We appreciate your patience and thank you for your support!


❗️ Important: How to Open IFConnect on macOS

Since IFConnect is currently in beta, macOS may block the app because it is from an unidentified developer. Follow these steps to open it:

  1. Download and install IFConnect on your Mac.
  2. Try to open the app, and you will likely see a message saying, “IFConnect can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer.”
  3. Go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy.
  4. In the General tab, you will see a message at the bottom about IFConnect being blocked.
  5. Click Open Anyway to allow the app to run.
  6. The app will ask for confirmation again; choose Open to launch it.

After following these steps, IFConnect should open without any issues.


❗️ Important: Setting Up Infinite Flight for IFConnect

To use IFConnect with Infinite Flight, follow these steps to enable Infinite Flight Connect:

  1. Open Infinite Flight on your device.
  2. Go into Settings > General.
  3. Scroll towards the bottom and look for ‘Enable Infinite Flight Connect’.
  4. Check the box if it is not checked already.

Ensuring this setting is enabled is essential for IFConnect to communicate with Infinite Flight.


❗️ Important: Entering Your Device’s IP Address for IFConnect

To connect IFConnect to Infinite Flight, you will need to enter the IP address of the device running Infinite Flight. Follow these steps to find the IP address on iOS and Android:

On iOS:

  1. Open Settings on your iPhone or iPad.
  2. Go to Wi-Fi, and tap the i icon next to the Wi-Fi network you are connected to.
  3. You will see the IP Address under the “IPV4 Address” section.

On Android:

  1. Open Settings on your Android device.
  2. Go to Network & Internet or Wi-Fi, depending on your version.
  3. Tap on the Wi-Fi network you are connected to.
  4. Look for the IP Address under the network details.

Once you have found your device’s IP address, open IFConnect and enter the IP in the Connection Settings to connect to Infinite Flight.
